Korean Fried Chicken Chain Opens Third San Antonio Location
Gangnam-style wings spread their flavor in San Antonio
The rising trend of Korean fried chicken has been amplified by the expansion of bb.q Chicken in the San Antonio area. The Korean chicken chain recently opened its newest outpost in the Galleria Oaks shopping center in the Hollywood Park neighborhood, marking its third San Antonio location. Thus enhancing the culinary landscape of the Alamo City.
The other two locations of bb.q Chicken are positioned on Rittiman Road and in Live Oak, the latter unfolding its operations earlier this year in the erstwhile location of Milt’s Pit BBQ.
What’s Special About Korean Fried Chicken?
Korean fried chicken owes its burgeoning popularity to its crispy exterior. As per renowned food websites, the chicken is typically bone-in and is coated with a thick, crunchy layer, earning it an irresistible attribute. The flavorful sauces like honey garlic, galbi, Gangnam-style, and Chinese-inspired mala further enhance its taste, setting it apart from conventional fried chicken.
At bb.q Chicken, the menu not only boasts a variety of chicken offerings, but also encapsulates popular Korean street foods like ddeok-bokki (a spicy concoction of rice and fish cakes) and kimchi fried rice.
An enterprise that started in Korea now spreads its wings worldwide
Established in the 1990s in Korea, bb.q Chicken has grown exponentially over the past three decades. Today, it clouts more than 3,500 outlets across 57 countries, amplifying its brand recognition globally. With the opening of the third outlet in San Antonio, bb.q Chicken has made the savoring of crispy Korean fried Chicken easier for the locals.
Location Details
The brand-new bb.q Chicken outlet is located at 16111 San Pedro Ave., Suite 100, San Antonio, TX 78232. It operates on the same hours as the other two locations, augmenting the accessibility for Korean food lovers in the city.
Popular Eateries with New Branches Adds to the Culinary Quotient
The opening of the third San Antonio bb.q Chicken outlet joins the growing list of eateries finding a new home in the city. This accentuates the city’s gastronomic culture, making it a food paradise for the locals as well as tourists who crave a varied palate. From coffee shops to seafood restaurants to bakeries from other states popping up in the city; San Antonio’s culinary scene is riding high.
A Look Into the Recent Past of City’s Restaurant Scene
